THE MAUI NEWS, SATURDAY, MAY 10, 1913.
Beauties of
Valley Isle
Well Known Visitor Enraptured With
Scenes Of Our Island
Home.
"1'ort of Passion"' McMalion is
I'lijoyinj; his etay on Maui. The
following screed tells in prose, for a
change, what he thinks of Maui.
Dear NkV!: Sinco seeing you I
spent a fen- days at Paia, then came
here to W'aiakoa to stay a while
with my old friend George Copp for
the good of my health, and the good
has indeed heen much. The climate
is surely ideal and the scenery beau
tiful. So lovely, it seems Nature
lias labored to make at least one lit
tle spot on earth a facsimile of the
home of the gods in paradise. From
Makawao here, a distance of eight
miles, the hillsides are dry, with
few habitations and little vegeta
tion. !ut, approaching W'aiakoa,
the aspect changes, the hills bloom
forth in refreshing greenness of
young corn and beans, peas and
potatoes, and little white houses dot
the rolling hills, like yachts sailing
away on the billowy ocean of green
ness to be lost in the fleecy clouds
veiling the summit of Ilaleakala,
where the mightiest crater in the
world iies sleeping
The morning's dawn in splendor,
the glorious sun breaking through
thecloudson the maje.-tic mountain,
heralded by the songs of adulation
of a myriad skylarks; and oh! such
singing. All day long it continues,
till the golden sun glides into the
ocean by the island of Lanai, the
fantastically shaped clouds, cresting
the mountain around and, beyond
Iao Valley and far athwart the
dreaming sky, gleaming in opaline
tints, the canefields of the vale be
low us smiling in their refreshing
verdancy and opulence, whilst the
sea along the winding coast on
either hand is calm as a pond, a
dreamy hush hanging over moun
tain, valley and sea, and the lazy
looking islands of Kahoolawe, Lanai
and the baby isle of Molokini as the
last faint rays of light fade in the
sky, and Day closes her eyes to
dream of the magic of the beauty
around her.
Each morning I am awakened
about four o'clock by a concert
given by the mynahs, who have
their domicile in the euculyptus
trees close by. Py day-break the
larks tunc their lutes, with the doves
and the linnets, till the air vibrates
with delicious harmony, and the
dew-drops on the grass seem to
thrill in an ecstasy of bliss. And
all is so refreshing, so cool the
breeze and so warm the sun at the
same time. ut most of all the
songs of the skylarks enthrall nie,
so I must produce for you in words
the harmonious impressions I re
ceived listening to the rapturous
cadences of those wondrous song
sters. This gives the soft alluring charm
to life which makes it worth living,
more than the glamor of wealth and
the attractions of crowded streets in
busy cities. Especially when you
need a rest from the r.crve-breaking
rush of things is it welcome. I
have been on all the large islands
of our group, ijid while court re
porter on Hawaii spent months al
together in all parts of the island in
Ilaniakua, Kohala, (where the
breeze is fresh and bracing) the
sunny hills of Kona, charming and
healthful, where the coffee berries
ripen, and at the Volcano of Kilau
ea, but nowhere is the vision so en
chanting and the climate so salubri
ous as in this obscure little village
of W'aiakoa, in the district of Kula,
on the verdant slope of Ilaleakala.
But something always lacks, and
tne sonietiimg you iMauiles are
asleep too is a fine macadam road
to the summit of the crater. And
let it run through this lovely spot
and give easy access to this charm
ing locality, and build some where
at this invigorating elevation of
3,500 feet or so above the sea,
where you sleep under about 4
blankets through mort of the year,
a good hotel, then advertise your
stupendous crater, and tell the
world where health and beauty bide
and life for shattered nerves, and
you'll have ten thousand million
tourists, more or less, climbing over
each otljer to get in on the ground
floor, as the boomers say, before
you have awaked from your aston
ishment. So, put that in your
pipe anu mini it over till your
thoughts your pipe dream be
gorra, becomes a reality. Now, no
body knows of it, and if they did
your automobile rates of a liar a
mile or more to this rjarndise
(though the scenery is worth it)
and hack rates at half that, would
scare them off.
And what could you not raise in
this silty soil if you had water
enough the finest of any in the
islands. Shure its a matter of ex
periment, for its richness is wonder
ful. So you must build that big
reservoir yiz are dhramin' off also
and bring the water here, or half
your life is lost.
